[Verse 1] I set my boots by the log Let the night air take my face The fire snaps small and bright On the stones beside the lake The stream keeps rolling low Under roots and folded fern And every little sound around Feels like it knows my name [Pre-Chorus] Green sparks in the dark Little pulses in the grass The whole world leans in slow And nothing tries to pass [Chorus] Fireflies in the firelight Hold me here tonight Fireflies in the firelight Everything feels right Crickets keep time Water runs near I can just stay Right here [Verse 2] The kettle black with soot Sits warm beside my knee I watch the ember thread Fall soft as it can be Down by the reeds they sing A thin and silver seam While smoke drifts up and fades Like it came from a dream [Pre-Chorus] Green sparks in the dark Little pulses in the grass The whole world leans in slow And nothing tries to pass [Chorus] Fireflies in the firelight Hold me here tonight Fireflies in the firelight Everything feels right Crickets keep time Water runs near I can just stay Right here [Bridge] No need to chase the hours No need to name a thing The night can do its tending With the voices that it brings One more pop from the coals One more ripple in the stream I let the dark grow gentle And settle into green [Final Chorus] Fireflies in the firelight Hold me here tonight Fireflies in the firelight Everything feels right Crickets keep time Water runs near I can just stay Right here Fireflies in the firelight Hold me here tonight Fireflies in the firelight Everything feels right Crickets keep time Water runs near I can just stay Right here
